   For what it is worth, I watched the video. I'm sorry, I just disagree. I think there are plenty of devs that agree with you, but I don't. Some points: - Working with the UI of GitHub is pretty painless to me. - On the other hand,

   I wouldn't trust Amazon or any other tech giant with data about my emotions, that information is more personal to me than the contents of my day to day conversations or any other biometrics they might be scraping. What an unimaginable

   I've always liked https://earth.nullschool.net/ If you click the button in the bottom left, it has a lot of features for viewing things like Wind speed, Wave Height, Atmospheric particulates and even Aroura activity.

   I have a hard time taking this seriously. Email is a pain to use compared to a dedicate feature UI. I think the real problem is the need for a standardized pull request protocol that people can wrap. Then let people use email, a website, an

   Think powershell, but built in rust, posix first and better at processing data(xml, csv, json, ...)

   Thank you for following up. I like the product. The UX is very nice and the workflow adds alot of value for me. Definitely going to test it out. 2 things 1. On windows, your app is getting caught by SmartScreen. I imagine this will fix itse

   I understand the emphasis on getting users to sign up, but I wanted to read more to see where this might fit into my workflow. - Does it support markdown? - Can I export my notes? - Are there any to-do list features?

    I recall that Supreme Commander used the same technique, a fully deterministic sim run in lockstep by all multiplayer peers. For it's era, it had very very high scale for an RTS game. (thousands of units and enormous game maps (the big

    C# is pretty great, I use it everyday. But if you've even spent significant time in F#, you return to C# land asking some of the same questions Don does. A great example is C# 8's Nullable Reference Types feature, touted as (parti

    No it does not, unless the discarded value is a Task in an async method. (or sometimes an IDisposable depending on what analyzers you have running)

    But that object is not a string, it is char buffer. You cannot directly substitute one for the other. Yes I realize they can be used to store the same data, but you've defined a new type that is incompatible with an actual string objec

    > You can stack allocate objects, so those are alive just until the end of the stack. Well, not really. You cannot stack allocate anything but primitive buffers. So no objects or even strings. So it cannot replace heap allocation for any

    I think that is the thesis of StackOverflow's devs. You can vertically scale easier and much further than what most people think. No groud up re-architecture, no microservice complexity, no crazy high cloud bills for exotic high power

    I don't know what kind of products these strategies work well on. I've only had experience with larger, older systems where multiple devs are making changes to fix specific issues that the other devs are not completely in the loop

    This is another tragedy of the bifurcation of the F# and greater .NET community. Most of the investment in refactoring has been for Roslyn analyzers, which are C#/VB specific. F# has a completely difference compiler framework. I don&#x

    F# is the language that I keep coming back to. And as the paper notes, it has kept up well with the rapidly changing landscape of .NET Core and newer defacto standards introduced by modern C#.

    Are there any thoughts about where compression fits into this model? I know networks are getting very fast but with this size of data I wonder if there are realizable gains left with modern algorithms like Snappy.

    This response feels very hyperbolic to me. I can barley call this an ad, especially since the subject of the ad is free, open source and a successor product to the current one.

    But isn't Tableau owned by Salesforce now? That evens the playing field some. Also, this is a free and now open source tool from Microsoft Research that is independent of PowerBI.
